Maintain Me has proudly offered Transition Services as well as Case Management. We found there was still a void in what we could do to assist older adults and their families.
We have been busy during quarantine and are so excited to roll out our NEW Consulting Program. Another great way we can meet you where you are in the aging process!
Our services in Review!
TRANSITION
Transition services are for aging adults 55+ looking to transition to independent living, assisted living or memory care. Maintain Me assists with identifying and narrowing down communities based on a medical, financial and social assessment. We arrange personalized tours accompanied by a Maintain Me specialist.
Our role is to ensure a smooth transition with all aspects of the process.
Examples of when Transition may be appropriate:
• Client is no longer able to stay at home and is needing to move
• Client is socially isolated and wants a community style living
• Client is not able to take care of spouse and needs help but wants to stay together with more amenities and caregiver relief
CASE MANAGEMENT
Case Management includes coordinating initial care and 4-12 weeks of oversight from a Case Manager (RN, MSW) after a change in condition. This program is designed for our aging population to return home with extra support for a short period of time as they recover.
The goal is to ensure a successful return to home and prevent re-hospitalization.
Example of when Case Management may be appropriate:
• Client is hospitalized after a fall, has been informed of a new diagnosis, or discharging from rehab/therapy after a change of condition, and would like to return home. Family is not able to provide the oversight needed as the client recovers and is seeking resources. Oversight may include home modifications, medication management, and coordination of home care services, etc.
And NOW we are excited to offer...
CONSULTING
Consulting is for aging adults who would like to remain independent at home and need help identifying the resources around doing this successfully. Maintain Me would provide a medical, financial and social assessment. We offer a wide range of services, starting at a minimum of a personalized care plan through hands on assistance with any support setup and follow through.
Examples of when Consulting may be appropriate:
• Client has been living at home and does not want to move. Things at home are starting to get harder, but not quite problematic. Client is considering getting help and needs assistance navigating all the resources that exist and may even need help setting them up.
• Client has had a change of condition and now needs assistance finding a nursing home or resources quickly and doesn’t have the time for the extensive research to make a confident decision.
• Client needs a specialist in this area who knows the resources in and out and can help narrow down options.
• A caregiver who would like assistance, either because they are new to this role or are experiencing burnout and may be overwhelmed.
